Filter hardness is important to filter and cigarette manufactures because it is directly related to the ability of a plugmaker during making filter and to the acceptability of the filter by the consumer. In general, glycerol triacetate(Triacetin, TA) is the currently used common plasticizer in making filters from cellulose acetate tow and the effect of triacetin on hardness of filter which is made of mono cellulose acetate tow was well known. But unfortunately, the effect of triacetin on the hardness of cellulose acetate filter containing ativated carbon(carbon filter) was not reported so far. In this study, we manufactured filters with various carbon content at different triacetin concentrations and then analyzed the filter hardness and pressure drop. Filter hardness was directly increased with triacetin concentration but pressure drop was not affected and the effect of carbon content on filter hardness was smaller than that of triacetin concentration. However, pressure drop was directly increased with carbon content.

The objective of the present study is to induct the regression equation for the hardness prediction of cellulose acetate filter which was manufactured by the domestic cellulose acetate tow manufacturer. As a result of our study, the hardness of filter was increased with increasing the plasticizer content and packing density as major factors affecting to the filter hardness. As a result which was obtained by the three dimensional response surface methodology in STATISTIC A program, the hardness prediction value well fitted with experiment result on the high plasticizer content. To make up for the this equation, the new modified fraction of solid factors which was contained the mono denier factor was introduced to the hardness prediction equation, and this third regression equation which was sufficient for the wide plasticizer content, was obtained by the three dimensional response surface methodology in STATISTICA. This results indicated that the third regression equation which was obtained this study was applicable for the hardness prediction of cellulose acetate filter which was manufactured by the domestic cellulose acetate tow manufacturer.

This study was carried out to investigate the influence of triacetin(TA) on some phisico-chemical properties of cigarette filter rods. To find the effect of TA on physical properties, we made six kinds of filters varying the TA levels(0%, 2%, 4%, 6%, 8%, 10%) and measured the hardness, resilience and roundness. The hardness of filter rods was increased from 83.2% to 94.6% with increasing the TA level hut the roundness was not affected by TA levels. After manufacturing the cigarette with the filters, we have analysed the delivery amount of phenol and TA with the content of TA. The amount of phenol was decreased from 20.6$\mu\textrm{g}$/cig. to 12.0 $\mu\textrm{g}$/cig. with increasing the TA level of the filters. The decreasing of phenol amount was thought to be caused by solution effect. Also the TA delivery of TPM was increased from 0% to 5% of TPM with increasing the amount of TA. We have found the interesting phenomena that ventilation rate was also decreasing up to 6oye with increasing TA. It seemed to be due to the encapsulated pressure drop and the reduction of the plugwrap porosity which also caused by the smear with TA on the surface of plugwrap. From this results, we could find that not only the hardness, resilience and ventilation rate but also the contents of phenol and TA in cigarette smoke was affected by the TA levels on the cigarette filter rods.

A new manufacturing method using laser transfer technology was developed for a color filter of TFT-LCD. This method can make red, green and blue color layer at the same time without several baking processes. Simple process, no residue, good edge profile, and so on are merits of this process. The same performances (such as color characteristics, reliability, hardness and so on) of current color filter were achieved with this process.

A blast furnace slag(BFS) has been used as a filter medium for the treatment of domestic waste waters during the period of 9-month. More than 90% of phosphorus was removed while the hardness of the treated water increased by 5 times and the pH was significantly raised from 6.8 to 10.8. The high hardness and pH of the treated water indicated dissolution of BSF by the sewage. The experimental results suggest that BFS could be utilized for the removal of phosphorus in the waste water treatment plant using aquatic plants and gravels.

Over the past years, a large number of acrylate polymers have been developed and the overcoat thin layer containing acrylate polymers have been used for TFT-LCD color filter. As forming thin layer using acrylate polymers, the existing acrylate polymers have some problems such as low hardness by low Tg temperature, coating uniformity and solubility in organic solvent. To solve these problems, we synthesized new polymer(Scheme.), containing olefin monomer, which has high Tg temperature, good coating uniformity and good solubility in organic solvent. The overcoat thin layer containing new polymer resulted in good coating uniformity, stain, spot, scratch, heat resistance, DOP(Degree Of Planarization) on RGB glass, transparency, hardness, adhesion, anti-chemicals(anti-acid, anti-base, anti-organic solvent), insulation and anti-humidity. Scheme. The structure of new polymer X = Olefin monomer contains ketone, ester, hydroxy, ether, halogen, nitrile, alkoxy, phenyl functional group $R_1$ and $R_2$= H or $CH_3$. Ratio=0<[1/(1+m+n)]<0.7,0.1[$\leq$[n/(1+m+n)]<0.5.

In this study, the effects of a pre-filter system and electrolysis system on the safe and efficient reuse of brine in the cabbage salting process were investigated. First, sediment filter-electrolyzed brine (SF-EB) was selected as brine for reuse. Then, we evaluated the quality and microbiological properties of SF-EB and Chinese cabbage salted with SF-EB. The salinity (9.4%) and pH (4.63) of SF-EB were similar to those of control brine (CB). SF-EB turbidity was decreased (from 0.112 to 0.062) and SF-EB residual chlorine (15.86 ppm) was higher than CB residual chlorine (0.31 ppm), and bacteria were not detected. Salinity (2.0%), pH (6.21), residual chlorine (0.39 ppm), chromaticity, hardness, and chewiness of cabbage salted with SF-EB were similar to those of cabbage salted with CB. The total bacterial count in cabbage salted with CB was increased as the number of reuses increased (from 6.55 to 8.30 log CFU/g), whereas bacteria in cabbage salted with SF-EB was decreased (from 6.55 to 5.21 log CFU/g). These results show that SF-EB improved the reusability of brine by removing contaminated materials and by sterilization.

In this experiment, we have manufactured thermal-curable silver pastes for direct printing. And to enhance conductivity, printability, adhesion and hardness during polymer direct-gravure prints, we have manufactured Ag pastes by adding variety of filter contents. Then we have investigated characteristics of rheology in paste according to the gravure printability and the properties of printed conductive patterns. Depending on a variety of Ag powder, there was a big difference in sharpness of printed pattern. And also by the use of carbon, there was a big difference in amount of solvent used, conductivity and in hardness. We could improve doctoring and the sharpness of a pattern by adding Ag paste in carbon particle, but as we have used nano-sized particle, there was an increase in the amount of solvent used and also we have found out that it gives a bad effect as adhesive and hardness becomes weaker. Even though Ag particle has the same spherical shape, the surface treatments could differ from one another. And by the appropriate choice and with the suitable combination of Ag powder, excellent printability and conductivity could be obtained.

Effects of pressure and pressing time of soyprotein-CaSO4 coagulates on the yield, water holding capacity and textural characteristics of SPI (soy protein isolated) tofu were investigated. The tofu was prepared by addition of CaSO4 into SPI suspension at 9$0^{\circ}C$ and then compressed. As the compressing pressure increased from 8.66g /cm2 to 49.43g /cm2, the volume yield and moisture absorbed on filter paper were decreased and the textural properties of hardness, adhesiveness, cohesiveness and gumminess were increased. Increase in hardness and gumminess were more significant at high pressure than those at low pressure.
